I WILL LIVE .....FOREVER

Life …………. Pass It On

At a certain moment doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function and that, for all intents and purposes, my life has stopped

When that happens doesn’t call this my “Death Bed”. Call it my “Bed of Life “and let my body be used by others to lead fuller lives.

Give my eyes to a man who has never seen sunrise, a baby’s face or love in the eyes of a woman.

Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless of pain.

Give my blood to teenager, who has been pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play

Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week.

Take my bones, every muscles every fiber and every nerve from my body to find a way to make a crippled child walk.

Explore every corner of my brain take my cells and let them grow so that somebody a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window

Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow

If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weakness and my prejudice against my fellowman

Give my sins to the devil and give my soul to God.

If you do what I have asked

I WILL LIVE …………… FOREVER

A donation is a gift given, typically to a cause or/and for charitable purposes. A donation may take various forms, including cash, services, new or used goods as i.e. clothing, toys, food, vehicles, emergency or humanitarian aid items, and can also relate to medical care needs as i.e. blood or organs for transplant. Charitable gifts of goods or services are also called gifts in kind.(def source http://en.wikipedia.org)

Donations without doubt, help the receiver. It also helps the donor because it draws out from the door a sense of noble purpose in life.

Social education that explains the life-saving benefits of organ transplantation, the enormous need for organ donation, the concept of brain death and religious teachings related to these issues is vital for creating a conducive environment for the organ transplant co-ordinator or physician soliciting the donation.

In this poem the poet’s wish to make donation of all the good he has. The poem reveals the poet’s respect and regard for all human beings. He wishes that every human being be given the opportunity to have a fuller life. The poem also reveals his selfless nature.

The title implies that life is a gift that we can make use of even at the time of our death for the benefit of others. By donating our organs we can help other people live or lead better lives.

Organ transplantation is one of the more recent advances in patient care. Today transplants save thousands of lives and transform the quality of life of many more. Unfortunately, an even greater number of patients die, or continue to receive expensive replacement therapy such as renal dialysis, because of an insufficient supply of donated organs.

Each organ and tissue donor saves or improves the lives of as many as 50 people. Giving the "Gift of Life" may lighten the grief of the donor's own family. Many donor families say that knowing other lives have been saved helps them cope with their tragic loss.

More and more people receive transplants every year and more people are living longer after transplants.
A patient’s life can thus change forever, thanks to the practice of deceased or cadaver donations of organs.

Medical teams, hospitals, laboratories, computer networks, and transportation systems work 24 hours a day to match donated organs with people who need them. Learn about the transplantation process, and the role of a key participant-the organ donor.

According to me, the most valuable donation is that which can save the life of another person. In this respect , blood donation is the most valuable donation.

I would like to donate my eyes after my death. So that someone without sight will have the privilege of seeing.

"There is no lovelier way to thank God for your sight than by giving a helping hand to those in the dark."
